[Albion] Kevin Gameiro

[deslynhamsmoustache1]

This is the most bullshit of all the bullshit rumours.

If we sign Kevin Gameiro I will get his name tattooed on me, I’m that confident it won’t happen. There is absolutely zero chance at all. None. Zilch. Zip. Zero. Nada.

So why have you got Kevin tattooed on your left arse cheek?

Interesting. Why the spike in 90’s Kevin’s ?

I am Kevin, and during my time in France in the 90's the girls were very fond of me.

Apparently something to do with the popularity of the films Dances with Wolves starring Kevin Costner and the film Home Alone whose principal character was called Kevin. Both films were released in 1990 after which, the year following, there was a huge surge in its popularity. Gameiro was born in 1987 so his parents were obviously trailblazers in that respect and weren't merely jumping on the bandwagon. There is something of a stigma attached to the name Kevin in France now as its deemed rather "common".

If he was to sign it might serve Warren well to practice his pronunciation with this clip

Why not go for Dybala from Juve while we're at it? Cheeky bid for Aubameyang too?

I hear Aguero may not be in Guardiola's plans.

Kevin appears a somewhat weird name for a Frenchman, however, on completing a little research into the matter 1 in 10 boys in the 90's in France have been called Kevin.

Of all the striker rumour related stats this is by far the best. Great research.

Shouldn’t we just go for Greizman instead

Nah he's shite as well

Nah he's shite as well

I don’t know why this made me laugh so hard. But I could imagine some of our fan base saying ‘who?’, ‘never heard of him’, ‘sounds crap he’s French’.

Paul Merson: "Who's that Kevin Gallileo fella Jeff? Never heard of the geeza in my life. Why aren't Brighton going for proven English talent like Danny Graham?"

Don't be ridiculous, Messi is far better.

Can you imagine!

They could and they did when he got subbed against us in pre-season. Made me chuckle.

Can’t wait to see the Tatt

I'm guessing out of respect for the great Kevin Bremner. His exploits would have had a massive impact on the minds of young impressionable teenage fans in the late 80's, who by the time they were have children of their own 5-10 later, would have inevitably gone down the Kevin route.

I played out a similar dance with the great Kieran O'Regan. Oh, what a player. He scored a cracking volley into the North goal (memory says vs Pompey, but can't be sure now), and at that moment I vowed to myself, that the name of my first born will be Kieran.

Surely there was a similar moment for many as Bremner rose like a salmon to head us in front against Bristol Rovers.

Big news in France back in the day I’m sure

Whys this deal taking so long to complete?

You’d think Kev would be chomping at the bit to join us
